The sale was effective Oct. 1, 2012, but the five Shoppers Supply stores in Iowa retained their former name through the holiday shopping season. Now, it’s clear the Fort Dodge store is part of the Sioux City-based Bomgaars. Bomgaars was founded in 1952 by William Bomgaars and has remained a family-owned business for six decades.
